Sienna’s beautiful face was filled with shock.“Sir York. With your talent, you’ll be able to contribute much to the country. Let me invite you…”“You’re too kind, Mr. Rudolph.”“I told you, I’m no doctor. I only know the Art of Killing.”“There’s always someone well-versed in a certain field.”“I just got lucky. I managed to save Elder Torres in a field that I’m good at.”Before Sienna could even finish her sentence, Harvey lifted Rudolph up.“Elder Torres has been suffering for many years. He’s steadily recovering right now, but he still needs time to rest.”“I’ll leave it up to you now, Deathbuster.”Harvey then turned around and left.Harvey had no interest in getting close to the daughter of the top family.After all, there were just too many princes and young masters lining up for her.Harvey didn’t want to go against every single one of those people.When he left the Number One Manor, Harvey’s connections in Flutwell were raised to a whole other level.Before, with
“Did a man invite you?” Harvey asked instinctively.“No! It’s a woman, duh!”Xynthia giggled.“I’m an adult now! I know how things work!”“If it was a man, I would’ve rejected the invitation on the spot!”“Anyway, I heard that some of the most outstanding young masters and ladies of Flutwell’s business circle will come today.”“The friend who came to talk business with our company is the organizer of the gathering. She was the one who invited me.”“I couldn’t decline the offer. I wanted to help Sister with her business, after all!”“That was why I accepted it.”“But I’m not too familiar with the place…”“That’s why I can only ask you to come with me!”Xynthia put on a pitiful look.“There aren’t a lot of people who know you here, anyway.”“Besides, we can’t just fight our way up the ranks, right?”“People say that business is made through relationships. I think they’re absolutely right!”“Let’s fight for Sister’s future together. Alright?”Xynthia started swinging Harve
Diana slowly took off her sunglasses, revealing her seductive eyes.But a distant look could be seen on her face and she glared at Harvey.The fact that she came all the way here made it seem like she was afraid that Xynthia wouldn’t join the banquet.Upon realizing that, a profound smile made its way to Harvey;s lips.“I invited you to the banquet for our sake, Xynthia.”“How can you be so rude?”Diana’s expression worsened when she saw Xynthia tugging on Harvey’s arm all lovey-dovey-like.“If Young Master Burton knows that you’re bringing an outsider with you…”“He’ll be upset!”“There’ll be consequences, you know!”‘Young Master Burton?’Harvey looked at Diana after hearing that name, curious.He realized that Xynthia wanted him to tag along so he could be her shield.However, he wasn’t angry about it.Ansel told him that the people from India were most likely involved in the situation that got him framed.Though it seemed like they were only going after Xynthia, Harv
Not only was Eli a tall and handsome man, but Diana could also feel a special aura out of him. She knew that Eli was an elite at first glance.Eli’s family was also considered to be quite wealthy back in India. The family specialized in making generic drugs. Eli became a true top talent by following in his family’s footsteps.It’s said that with Eli’s strength and skill set, he would’ve had way better achievements if it weren’t for the caste system restricting him.Even Frankie looked up to Eli.Frankie was the vice chairman of the Bharata Business Council.A man like that looking up to Eli was enough to prove a lot of things.In any case, Harvey was nothing compared to Eli. Eli was in another league!Diana believed that Harvey had no right to get close to Eli, no matter how impressive Harvey actually was.But after seeing Xynthia so determined to follow Harvey wherever he went, she had no choice but to bring the both of them along.“Let’s get in, Brother-In-Law.”Xynthia fel
“I brought Xynthia here for her to see a young master from India!”“Auntie Yates agreed to this too!”“You showing up here will make the young master extremely unhappy!”Diana’s face was harsh.“You shouldn’t be here!”“Here’s fifteen dollars! Get yourself a cab and some food!”“Just treat this as a freebie!”Diana then pulled the money out of her purse and flailed it around arrogantly.Harvey’s eyes turned cold. He was about to shove the money right into the annoying woman’s mouth when he was interrupted.Xynthia came out soon after, preventing him from doing so.“You’re still not coming in, Harvey?”She held onto Harvey’s arm, afraid that he would flee the place once he had the chance.“Harvey said he’s feeling unwell, and that he’s just about to leave.”Diana thought that Harvey was scared when she saw that he didn’t react to her threats. She then pulled out some more cash and threw it at Harvey.“Is fifteen dollars not enough for you?”“Here’s a hundred and forty d
Diana smiled sweetly, as if she was ready to lay right on top of Eli.“I’m so sorry for ruining your fun by being this late, Young Master Burton.”“Heh, heh, heh! What are you saying, Diana?”“It’s my honor to have you here!”“It doesn’t matter if you’re a little late.”Eli took a sip of his champagne before his burning gaze fell on Xynthia.“And this must be Xynthia, right?”“Right. That’s her,” Diana replied.“Xynthia Zimmer of the Jean family’s ninth branch.”“Other than being extremely well-known on the internet, she’s also a university student! She’s as pure and innocent as a child!”“You’ll be having fun tonight, Young Master Burton.”“I see. It’s nice to meet you, Ms. Zimmer.”Eli happily reached out his hand, a determined look on his face.“I’m Eli Burton. I come from a family of Vaishyas.”“You might not understand the caste system in my country. Let me explain…”“Us Vaishyas are born to be businessmen and have immense wealth. You should be able to understand no
“Oh?”“Ex-Husband?”“A shield?”“I see. Interesting!”Eli looked as if he realized something. He looked at Harvey with narrowed eyes filled with disdain.“It’s good to use your brain more frequently.”“A gentleman knows when to quit, after all.”“I’m warning you: don’t try to be a hero.”“If not, a low-class human like you will die a horrible death.”Eli’s calm words were filled with harsh threats.Xynthia was glued to Harvey’s arm, making Eli extremely jealous.“Harvey’s my boyfriend!” Xynthia exclaimed determinedly.“Stop insulting him already!”The crowd burst out laughing.A woman from a big family and a kept man…They were from completely different worlds, but Xytnhia kept saying that they were together.Who would believe her?“Stop making such a lame joke, Xynthia.”Eli chuckled disdainfully.“How could you lower yourself to his class?”“He has no right to be with a goddess like you. Right, everyone?”The crowd laughed again at Eli’s words.‘A worthless man
The crowd was shocked after hearing Harvey York’s words.They did not believe an outstanding woman like Xynthia Zimmer would be with such a worthless man.Harvey chuckled, as if he was planning to take things a step further to prove himself.“I know that you people don’t believe me. If that’s the case, I definitely can do more!”Harvey hugged Xynthia’s waist and gave her another kiss.This time, he did not actually touch Xynthia’s lips. He was stage-kissing, just like in the movies.To the others watching, the pair seemed to be having a passionate moment with each other, but in reality, they only touched cheeks.But even so, this display was quite shocking.Xynthia was about to pass out.She would never be able to explain the situation if her mother and sister knew about this.She knew full well just how Lilian Yates would react.She would never allow her daughters to be with some worthless b*stard…Let alone Harvey.“You’re insane, you b*stard!“You people from Country H
